I'd like to add some rubber to my modest M235i, and the 245/35R19 fronts and 265/35R19 rears the M2 is on are very tempting; does anyone know if 19" wheels exist that would accommodate these tires while not causing any rubbing in the M235i body? Everything is a matter of the right offset, so I'm starting my research by asking the question as per the heading of this thread...

Another option (perhaps even better due to the quality of roads here) would be:

Wheel : 18X8.5″ ET45 Front and 18X9.5″ ET58 Rear
Tires: 235/40/18, 265/35/18 Rear, as per this article:

- of these at least I know they do not rub, but it seems impossible to source a 18x9.5" ET 58 wheel here... Any advice?

Here is a comparo of the rear M2 vs. M235i wheel/tire setup, assuming ET 52mm for M235i and ET 45mm for the M2: which way to go with the wheel ET to squeeze it into the M235i well without rubbing? Anyone has some fact on which side (internal vs. external) would conflict with the M235i body first?

From the look of the (tested and working) 18" setup, it can be seen that there is mmore space inside than outside...

And the last pic shows how it looks like with the beefy 18" 265mm wide rubber on a stock 235i; tempting but can anyone suggest a source of 18x9.5-ET58 wheel in the EU?!!
